Privilège 510 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for a Privilège 510 Signature means looking at a 56-foot catamaran launched after Hanse Group's acquisition of the yard, built on the same Lombard hull as the earlier Série 5 but with a Darnet interior and a brighter, more glazed deckhouse. She is a bluewater platform aimed at autonomous cruising, and the used fleet reflects both private and ex-charter histories.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin layouts are the more common on the used market, but both are available; ex-charter examples are common. The three-cabin master-suite version places the owner's cabin across the full beam forward of the saloon, while the alternative four-cabin arrangement trades that private volume for additional double berths. Either way the saloon carries the larger windows and simplified navstation introduced on this model.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Most boats on the market carry a practical long-range kit: electric winches, a hardtop, air conditioning, dodger, bimini, dinghy davits, cockpit shower, radar, and chartplotter are commonly fitted, with a short-handed setup also typical. Often-seen additions include a swim platform, AIS, autopilot, inverter, freezer, and lithium batteries, speaking to owners who cruise independently. Less common but worth noting as owner upgrades are an asymmetric spinnaker, hot water, solar, teak decks, a watermaker, and a code zero — useful for extended anchorages and downwind passages but not standard.
What to Inspect
The digital switching that replaces the conventional switch panel at the navstation anchor is the model's key owner caveat. On a viewing, ask the seller to demonstrate full system control and confirm that proprietary software and schematics are included; a buyer without those tools faces remote troubleshooting through a dealer rather than a local marine electrician. Survey attention can stay on the usual catamaran items rather than model-specific defects.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats turn up in the United States, France, Guatemala, Belize, the Virgin Islands, U.S., and Spain. For a viewing, keep a short list:
- Confirm the three- or four-cabin layout matches your plans
- Verify the digital switching software and wiring schematics are on board
- Check the helm windscreen and hull glazing for seal condition
- Test the commonly fitted electric winches and hardtop for wear
- Inspect lithium battery and inverter installations if fitted
